How Is The Programme Different?
Choosing KCCA’s specialized culinary management degree unlocks countless opportunities worldwide.

These credentials are globally acknowledged and facilitate work permits in the Americas, making job applications and career growth seamless across the globe.
With a KCCA culinary management degree in hand, you’ll stand out among highly skilled candidates, giving you a competitive edge in the industry.

What Will You Experience?
At KCCA, we forgo a world based solely on theory and focus on using a variety of elements to hand over experience, knowledge and mentorship from high-value faculty. Unlike other hospitality management colleges in India, we work with the industry to create networks from the ground up, through workshops, practical work, farmers’ markets and tours, as well as presentations, case studies, tutorials and lectures to offer a wholesome understanding of the sector.
